Republican Headquaters Open in Crystal Lake

Republican Party Headquarters Opened

CRYSTAL LAKE…..The Republican Party of McHenry County is pleased to announce the opening of a new GOP Campaign Headquarters in Crystal Lake.

Through the November 6th General Election, volunteers will staff an office located at 22 Crystal Lake Plaza, on Route 14, just a few doors down from Joseph’s grocery store. The office will be open from 10:00 AM until 7:00 PM Monday through Friday, and on Saturdays from 10:00 AM until 5:00 PM.

“This Crystal Lake Plaza location provides us with great visibility and a lot of room for our volunteers to work on many key projects,” said Party Chairman Mike Tryon. “People are welcome to stop in and pick up Romney yard signs, Romney/Ryan bumper stickers, GOP T-shirts, and yard signs for most of the Republican candidates in McHenry County. We can also assist people with finding their polling places and with learning about how the new maps affect who their candidates will be.”

According to Tryon, the GOP will host a debate-watching party at the campaign headquarters on Thursday, Oct. 11 at 7:00 PM, when Vice Presidential candidates Paul Ryan and Joe Biden square off in what should be a fascinating debate. Food and drinks will be provided.

The office is always looking for enthusiastic Republican volunteers. Those interested volunteering should contact the campaign office at (815) 444-1910.
